One of my favorite Tastings in the city is Gramercy Tavern, and one of my favorite cuisines is Indian, so I was very excited to try Meyer's Tabla. I'm sorry to say that the experience was very disappointing. It may seem like a strange complaint, but I really think the problem with Tabla's Tasting Menu is that it is just too much food--and not very exciting food--at that. Perhaps if I had been served a smaller portion of the Red Snapper, I wouldn't have realized how boring it was-- I left half of it on my plate. Must say though, the yuzu cone dessert was very good, and the roti is some of the best I've had. If I ever went back, it would be to Bread Bar, to get some more of the roti, and to see what Meyer can do with more traditional Indian cuisine.
